Vance Ingalls 8ba3c33915 fix(engine,producer,cli): close review gaps in sub-timeline fail-fast
Address PR #2045 review feedback:
- Share a SubTimelineWaitOutcome type (engine) end-to-end instead of
  widening to string across CapturePerfSummary / RenderPerfSummary /
  telemetry, so the three layers can't drift.
- Dedupe scriptLoadFailures on push — a 4xx response and its trailing
  requestfailed both recorded the same URL, doubling the failed-URL
  list in the fail-fast warning.
- Thread the sub-timeline-wait outcome into render_error (not just
  render_complete): a render that fail-fasts and then fails downstream
  (pollVideosReady, extract, encode) previously dropped this signal on
  the floor. dedupPerfs is now function-scoped so the catch path can
  read it, same treatment as the existing captureAttempts array.

hyperframes

CLI for creating, previewing, and rendering HTML video compositions.

Install

npm install -g hyperframes

Or use directly with npx:

npx hyperframes <command>

Requirements: Node.js >= 22, FFmpeg

Commands

init

Scaffold a new Hyperframes project from a template:

npx hyperframes init my-video
cd my-video

preview

Start the live preview studio in your browser:

npx hyperframes preview
# Studio running at http://localhost:3002

npx hyperframes preview --port 4567

render

Render a composition to MP4. Run from the project directory; the positional argument is the project directory (not a file), so render the project's index.html directly, or point at a specific composition file with -c:

npx hyperframes render -o output.mp4
npx hyperframes render -c ./my-composition.html -o output.mp4

lint

Validate your Hyperframes HTML:

npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --json      # JSON output for CI/tooling
npx hyperframes lint ./my-composition --verbose   # Include info-level findings

By default only errors and warnings are shown. Use --verbose to also display informational findings (e.g., external script dependency notices). Use --json for machine-readable output with errorCount, warningCount, infoCount, and a findings array.

compositions

List compositions found in the current project:

npx hyperframes compositions

benchmark

Run rendering benchmarks:

npx hyperframes benchmark ./my-composition.html

doctor

Check your environment for required dependencies (Chrome, FFmpeg, Node.js):

npx hyperframes doctor

browser

Manage the bundled Chrome/Chromium installation:

npx hyperframes browser

info

Print version and environment info:

npx hyperframes info

docs

Open the documentation in your browser:

npx hyperframes docs

upgrade
